How to hide/deliver an e-book on a web site (clickbank)

    I'd be grateful for some expert help...

    SUMMARY
    My question is this, how do I stop the Thank You page and Download page being indexed in Google, and how would I prevent them from being displayed in the sitemap.xml as people trying to get the book for free could easily search this. Or is there some other secure way to deliver a book via ClickBank?

    DETAILS
    I have set up an e-book I am selling via ClickBank and I have a Thank You page as required by their rules, and it provides a link to the page where you can download the e-book.

    I am trying to optimize the web site and have a sitemap.xml which using a Wordpress Plugin is automatically submitted to Google on a regular basis.

    Thanks!

    very easy solution for this
    1 Do not include the page in your site map.
    for extra security.
    2 Add to robots.txt a disallow to the folder your thankyou page is in and also for the folder your download is in.
    3 Place an index.html in the same folders with a metatag noindex,nofollow and in the body of the file a redirect to the home page of your site with 0 delay.

    You can pm me if you need help.

    There are a bunch of scripts out there that do the exact same thing you need. You can Google 'protect clickbank download' and you'll find a bunch of scripts. If you wish, I have one for sale in BST, it's dirt cheap and does exactly what you want. You can take a look at it here:

    Use "NoIndex" meta tag and your page won't get indexed by google.

    Thanks Dimitrov, your product states, "Just open the Protection Script in any text editor like Notepad. Add your name, email address, company name, download link URL and a few other items as specified in the simple instructions. Then, Upload the Script to your website and make a few changes in you ClickBank account. You're totally protected!"

    If I have a download link URL won't that still show up in the sitemap.xml?

    Thanks
